Dealing With The “Other” Latency: What The Cloud Portends For IT

Infrastructure

What Is Tolerable Latency?

Expected latencies are trending down Applications still recommend 10ms or less as an average

~8ms 20 uSec 200 uSec


The New Bottleneck is Distance

Region

10-20 uSec

Rack to rack

Metro

200-1000uSec

10-25mSec


Most Growth is in the Public Cloud

Yet Public Clouds Are Most Distant

Cloud locations driven by real estate factors Power costs Cooling Land value 5


A New Enterprise Architecture Is Emerging

Low latency storage is nice but… Most data will be living across a network At least some compute and storage will be in

a public cloud Everyone is NOT moving to northern Virginia

to be close to their data New systems will need to be networked to

optimize for lowest latency A new set of components must be used

Colocation

Colocation and cloud data centers are growing exponentially.

Connectivity

Optical fiber is everywhere.

39 MILLION MILES OF FIBER ACROSS THE UNITED STATES
